Evaluation

Short Trip is a hand-drawn interactive illustration by solo developer Alexander Perrin. The store description explicitly describes this Steam release as a "complete version" that "includes all the content of the original" plus a new scheduled mode — meaning the developer launched it as a finished, self-contained product. There is no announced future content, no season pass, and no roadmap. Post-launch activity has been limited to two maintenance patches: a macOS compatibility fix on December 12, 2024, and a security vulnerability patch on October 5, 2025. Neither signals new content in development. The game launched as a complete package on December 11, 2024, and nothing in the developer's communications suggests that is expected to change.

The cats living along the mountain railway have places to be. You, the sole cat operating the tram, have the delightful duty of transporting them.

Short and sweet

Short Trip is an interactive illustration created by me, Alexander Perrin. Use the left and right keys to drive a scenic tram across a tranquil hand-drawn mountainscape, picking up and dropping off cat passengers as you go.

Since the initial free launch, Short Trip has been enjoyed by millions of players. This complete version includes all the content of the original while adding a new “scheduled” mode that integrates your computer’s clock to create a tram timetable. Reach each station at the correct time and rack up a high score! I’ve also included a little peek behind the scenes at the development process for the curious.

This is a “slow play” game designed to help players relax and unwind from the bustle of the day. I hope you enjoy your trip.
